What his chart says about him

  1. Who he was

    Sun in Aries, the Pioneer

    Direct, brave and impatient with waiting. At his best with a fresh start and a door nobody has opened yet. Purpose and drive in one place: he was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (wide at 4.2°)

  2. What he needed

    Moon in Leo, the Warm Heart

    Proud, warm and loyal in feeling. Needs to be appreciated, and makes loved ones feel like stars.

  3. How he loved

    Venus in Aquarius, the Kindred Spirit

    Loves friend-first. Falls for a mind, needs room to breathe, and is drawn to people who are a little different. Affection came to him with generosity attached: his heart and his optimism helped each other.

    Venus trine Jupiter (close at 1.1°)

  4. How he thought

    Mercury in Pisces, the Poet

    Thinks in pictures and feelings. Understands people without needing many words. Facts and dreams blurred together in his mind: wonderful for stories, harder when details mattered.

    Mercury opposition Neptune (close at 1.6°)

  5. What drove him

    Mars in Aries, the Trailblazer

    All drive, courage and quick starts. Goes first, acts fast, and is at his best when something needs doing now. His drive and his imagination spoke different languages: he went after something before he could say what it was.

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his identity, his drive and his independence (the Sun, Mars and Uranus) gather in Aries, and that part of life drew his attention first. The weight of his chart sits in fire signs: instinct and enthusiasm.
